Red Flag #2: He Doesn't Say What He Has to Offer

A guy's profile shouldn't be solely about what he wants in a woman -- he should reveal what he brings to a relationship. Without sounding arrogant or shallow, he should be able to explain why he’s a good catch. For example, he's a self-proclaimed nice guy, he's loyal or is straight up and says that he’s looking for someone to cuddle with and love. If he comes up short on what makes him desirable, he may want more than he can actually give.
